One football championship just ended while another one is just beginning

Bald eagle rules football just wrapped up its title match, and the winner, as always, was Tom Brady.

Brady's European counterpart is definitely the Real Madrid and Portuguese winger Cristiano Ronaldo. Both spend their days dominating their sports and both get to spend their nights with models and both look like they know they deserve to spend the night with models.

With Portugal just squeaking into this summer's World Cup, at the expense of Sweden and Zlatan Ibrahimovic, he'll get a chance to one up Brady by actually taking his sport's top trophy home instead of simply going home to his trophy-like significant other.

That's right, it's a World Cup year and that means EA Sports will produce another World Cup version of their football franchise - called this year EA Sports 2014 World Cup Brazil. I'm going to call it EAS14WCB for short.

The game will feature a slew of new on-the-field player animations, all 203 national teams, 7,469 players, 19 licensed managers, 21 new stadiums, and all 12 Brazilian World Cup venues.
